It acts as a spiritual successor to the ''[[Donkey Kong Land (series)|Donkey Kong Land]]'' series of [[Game Boy]] games. It would later be succeeded by [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Advance)|another remake]] for the [[Game Boy Advance]].

==Story==
The game's manual features an abridged version of the story from the original game's manual. During a stormy night, "hero-in-training" [[Diddy Kong]] is overpowered by the [[Kremling]]s, who proceed to trap him in a [[DK Barrel|barrel]], toss him into the jungle, and steal [[Donkey Kong]]'s [[banana hoard]]. In the morning, Donkey Kong is woken up by a smug [[Cranky Kong]], and vows to find Diddy, beat the Kremlings, and reclaim his bananas.

On September 9, 2020, a Game Boy Color prototype for ''Donkey Kong Country'' leaked to the internet.<ref>[[tcrf:Proto:Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Color)|TCRF]]</ref> The file is timestamped July 17, 2000, four months before the retail release of the Game Boy Color version. The prototype has several differences from the retail version.
===Differences===
*Only the Adventure and Option modes are accessible, suggesting that the Link-Up and Bonus modes were not yet or in the process of being implemented.
*Like the original Super Nintendo version, accessing every [[bonus room]] in a level adds an exclamation mark after the level's name. In the retail Game Boy Color version, the level name is highlighted red instead.
*Diddy's victory animation involves him throwing his cap up once rather than repeatedly.
*In the prototype build, [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] can roll through crawlspaces. This was fixed in the retail version.
*[[Candy's Challenge]] is inaccessible.
*In [[Very Gnawty's Lair]], [[Very Gnawty]]'s starting position is closer to the Kongs than in the retail version.
*The moment that Very Gnawty is defeated, the [[Giant Banana]] and Kongs' victory animation is shown. In the retail version, this is only shown once Very Gnawty pants repeatedly and faints. After this, the game resets.
**Even after resetting the game and reopening the game, [[Monkey Mines]] is inaccessible, but like the retail version, once [[Kongo Jungle]] is completed, [[Gangplank Galleon]] is shown from a distant view on the world map, and Kongo Jungle is marked by a Kong head instead of a [[Kremling]] head.
